Could you be an undercover conservative? I couldn't.
I am hardwired to be a liberal. It is all I know. I can't even understand the conservative viewpoint. I have no doubt I could learn to imitate a conservative, but if I had to act conservative from a pure reflex action, I simply couldn't do it.
This is analogous to when I have driven in countries that drive on the left. I had no trouble sitting on the right side of the car to drive. I drove a stick and had no trouble adapting to shifting with my left hand. I had no trouble with roundabouts, except occasionally I've had to do an extra lap or two. My hardwired left hand drive ways became apparent when I was trying to back into traffic. Unless I was overly deliberate, I would often look the wrong way and back into the wrong lane. Being a pedestrian in right hand drive countries was even worse than driving. When you step off a curb, your instinct makes you look . . . . the wrong way! That speeding car in the curb lane is about to hit you in the *back* of the head. I am a left hand drive driver.
And so it is with conservatism. Intellectually, I can interpret it. I don't agree with most of it, but when I think about it, I can makes the words make some sense. I just can't believe it. Or even pretend to do so. I am a liberal.

2. I cover things like rallies and events and I cover them fairly, just as I cover the other side fairly.
As I told somebody on a story last Friday... "I am not fox news."
So if a conservative does something right, I will applaud them, if they do not, I will tell the story. The same goes for Dems.
Now I need to write down my notes in the puter, so I can understand my chicken scratch, or rather as I can still understand them.

However, in her slanted view, no conservative ever does anything right and no democratick ever does wrong.

Of course you don't understand conservatives, you believe the lies about how we are.

It's very simple, DUDE!
Conservatives can imitate liberals, and be more convincing at it, than a liberal could imitate a conservative.
It's because conservatives are SMARTER than liberals, and conservatives use their brains to THINK.

This is like that Star Trek episode when they were on the doppleganger Enterprise.
Being civilized, the good Kirk could fake being evil. The evil could not fake being good (in RL they can, but it is difficult).
Likewise liberals can't fake being conservative because dumb can't fake being smart.
-
So being a liberal now means hating others with opposing viewpoints and wishing them dead?

I could try to be a liberal, but I don't know if I'd like hitting myself in the head with a hammer that often.

Wasnt the good Kirk too much of a wuss to be an effective captain in that episode?

Pretending to be a liberal is easy,you just say crazy stuff.
Since DUmmies are for the most part clinically insane they simply can`t pretend otherwise.

You didn't apply Update 12CRAZY to it. ::) :thatsright:

The stinkDUde should seriously consider getting a new cat.
It appears the candy bars in the litterbox are starting to get funky.
StinkDUde, the mold on them is making you think crazy thoughts.

That was the one where he split into 2 Kirks. The one I meant was they beamed into a parallel universe and evil Spock had a beard.

Yes, absolutely.
I thought Stinky claimed to have a mole over here, where he is undercover, fooling us all, and gaining enough post count to access the secret compartments.

The sparkling old dude does have an account here, but he's never used it.
Not at all, not even to lurk; he's never used it.
I dunno why, because we're nice people here, and the sparkling old dude's not the type to do something to get banned here (for bashing the military or revealing personal information), and so really, despite his stupid politics, he should be eminently comfortable amidst us.

Ahh, the bad Kirk tried and failed to pretend to be good in the episode where he was split also. Guess the writers didnt have many ideas back then.

17. Put me in a room full of conservatives....

is like putting a die hard KKK member at a Martin Luther King rally. I get violent tendencies, hell I will admit, I got in many a fistfights with conservatives, but my husband always finds a way to pull me back before things got more dangerously serious.
